Emma Slater has evacuated the dance floor.
After the Dancing With the Stars pro was voted off along with celebrity partner Reginald VelJohnson during week three of season 33, the 35-year-old shared an injury that will keep her out of the ensemble for the show’s Oct. 15 episode.
“So, this happened today,” Emma said in an Oct. 14 Instagram Story video, showing off one of her ankles wrapped up. “That’s my left ankle. I was rehearsing—we did a bumper rehearsal this morning.”
And while she isn’t one to have two left feet, she detailed how the mishap went down.
“I just came out of a lift trick,” she described. “I thought it was okay, but obviously I didn’t come out great because my foot hit the floor and just did that whole roll over thing.”
Later, Emma—while noting she was choosing not to disclose her exact diagnosis—shared that she will be on crutches for the time being.
“I had my MRI this morning,” she explained. “There’s a little bit of swelling. All good, could be worse, could be better. But I think I’m gonna heal within no time because, I don’t know. Gotta be positive!”
